Plot Summary
In 2010 “Skinwalker Ranch” gained media attention after experiencing a wide range of unexplained phenomena. Reports ranged from UFO sightings to livestock mutilation, and most notably the disappearance of ranch owner Hoyt Miller’s (Jon Gries) 8 year old son, Cody (Nash Lucas). Modern Defense Enterprises (MDE) sent a team of experts to document and investigate the mysterious occurrences. Any skepticism quickly vanishes as the team begins to experience inexplicable incidents on their very first night on the ranch, which only escalate as things unfold – they are forced out of bed by a deafeningly loud and painful tone, an enigmatic noise they can’t explain.The next day, after an incredibly large object set off a sensor in the field, they discover a dead calf drained of all blood with almost surgical precision. This pales in comparison to what they discover while reviewing the security tapes; an image bearing the likeness of Cody, running through the same section of the house at precisely the same time each night. That night it happens right in front of their eyes, prompting Hoyt and the team to give chase all the way into an old locked shed before Cody just vanished. Inside the shed the team not only finds enormous canine tracks, but evidence that MDE had been there before back in the 1960’s. Among the evidence, a buried video tape and a steel box labeled “For Emergencies Only.” It was empty… What was in the box, and what is on the tape? What was MDE investigating the first time, why did they keep it a secret?

Very good "found footage" movie
A really enjoyable "found footage" picture with solid acting and special effects. The camera distortion is a bit over done at times and gets to be a bit overbearing and annoying, but overall this was surprisingly entertaining and kept my interest throughout. Also big wolves are cool.
Dull and annoying
Yet another “found footage” attempt at horror. Not worth the cost of the rental.
What bugs me about the “found footage” genre is that the story ideas are generally good, but since no one talented enough to write a screenplay can be found, the story devolves into a hodgepodge of static, jumpiness and CGI.
This possibly could have been a decent film if someone put in the effort, but they didn’t and it isn’t.
A decent light horror film
I can't stand found footage films (it's been done, Hollywood, move on!) but this one had an interesting sampling of subject matter.
Yes, scary in parts, predictable in others (who leaves their dog in the barn when this kinda stuff goes on??).
Don't worry about spoilers, there's no story, nothing to figure out, and no real ending, just a sequence of weird stuff happening. A decent film to watch if you don't want to be too scared, or too grossed out...or too involved, unfortunately.
